An Evening with Tennessee Jet
Before Tennessee Jet became known for his genre-defying music that straddles the line between Red Dirt country and grungy rock, he traveled the interstates with his bronc-riding father and barrel-racing mother. From the bench seat of an old Ford pickup truck pulling a horse trailer to the next rodeo, he’d watch the hills and grasslands of America fly by.
Country music was always on the radio, and those honest, heartfelt classics by icons like Willie Nelson and Dwight Yoakam — both of whom he’d later join on tour — left a permanent mark.
Tennessee Jet’s newest album, Ranchero, continues his diverse musical explorations, blending twangy guitars and Appalachian fiddle with a grungy groove in tracks like “Ray Wylie Hubbard” and the platinum-streaming hit “Bury My Bones.” This album not only nods to his roots but also pushes the boundaries of what country music can be, showcasing his full-band capabilities and collaborative spirit.
Throughout his career, Tennessee Jet has been on a constant journey of self-reinvention, creating music that’s uniquely his own.
“My career has been a constant purging of what I’ve done before, so I can reinvent and create something that’s uniquely me,” he explains.
His approach has always been to fuse the contrasting elements of rock’s distorted stomp with country’s twang, paying homage to influences like Neil Young and Jack White while crafting narratives that reflect a lifelong exploration of self and place. His lyrics reference literary heroes like Faulkner, Shakespeare, Kerouac, and Woody Guthrie, alongside vivid depictions of his own experiences — from speeding down the Indian Nation Turnpike to honoring the DIY ethos of his early days.
“I’m always looking to challenge the definition of what a specific genre is supposed to sound like,” Jet says. “People are aching for truth in country music again, and that’s what these records came to represent.”
His albums — from South Dakota through The Country and now Ranchero — stand as a testament to his artistic crossroads, where nostalgia meets innovation, crafting a version of country music that is both fresh and familiar.
